Rear Axle

When to Check Lubricant

It is not necessary to regularly check rear axle ﬂuid

unless you suspect there is a leak or you hear an

unusual noise. A ﬂuid loss could indicate a problem.

Have it inspected and repaired.

How to Check Lubricant

To get an accurate reading, the vehicle should be on a

level surface.

For all vehicles, excluding vehicles equipped with the

6.0L V8 Engine, the proper level is from 0 to 0.40 inch

(0 to 10 mm) below the bottom of the ﬁller plug hole,

located on the rear axle.

For vehicles equipped with the 6.0L V8 Engine, the

proper level is from 0.6 inch to 1.6 inches (15 mm to

40 mm) below the bottom of the ﬁller plug hole, located

on the rear axle differential cover.

Add only enough ﬂuid to reach the proper level.

What to Use

To determine what kind of lubricant to use, see

Recommended Fluids and Lubricants on page 6-12.

For vehicles equipped with the SS package, to add

lubricant when the level is low, use SAE 75W–90

Synthetic Axle Lubricant (GM Part No. U.S. 12378261, in

Canada 10953455) meeting GM Speciﬁcation 9986115.

To completely reﬁll after draining, add 5.5 ounces

(163 ml) of Limited-Slip Axle Lubricant Additive

(GM Part No. U.S. 1052358, in Canada 992694).

Then ﬁll to the bottom of the ﬁller plug hole with the

Synthetic Gear Lubricant.
